compiled from kelly richers ' california moth specimen database . kelly has been compiling the database since 1996 from literature sources , museum collections , and ( i believe ) novel collections . these lists are probably not comprehensive ( if such a thing is possible for such a diverse group of organisms ) , but given kelly ' s dedication and the degree of sampling in the state , it ' s probably pretty close at the state and regional level , and approaching that degree at the county level , and thus i have marked them as comprehensive on inat . all errors are my own , and if you find any , please let me know .
many of the names in the cmsd have not bee included in the inat lists i ' ve created . i have tried to import every name from the catalogue of life , bugguide , and ubio , so any names that are still missing are not present in those sources . i have also tried to manually check the remainder against urltoken , i ' ve tried to manually add any taxa that have a species page on mpg , and i ' ve checked for simple misspellings of the kind the google can catch . for the remainder , here are some of the reasons the names are missing :
taxonomic ambiguity : sometimes a name was clearly in use in the past but i can ' t tell how it maps to a current name .
many names in the cmsd have specific epithets that exist in other , unrelatd genera , e . g .
acrolophus inquinatus ,
which may be mistaken entry for hellinsia inquinatus . i have not included these names in an effort to minimize assumptions about the collectors ' intents .
a full listing of all the names i was not able to import can be found here .

arunta perulata is a large cicada native to australia .

it is also known as the white drummer cicada .

the name floury baker was previously applied to this species , but that name is now specific to aleeta curvicosta .

the white drummer was first described in 1831 by félix édouard guérin-méneville as cicada perulata .

the average body length of the male white drummer is approximately 3.75 cm and the female approximately 3.72 cm .

the head is green with prominent dark red-brown markings and green midline along pronotum .

the eyes are a dark red-brown .

the thorax and abdomen are predominantly dark red-brown .

depressions on the body are covered with yellow velvety fur .

the prominent sac-like tymbal covers are white .

the wings are clear with reddish brown and yellowish veins , and measure up to 4.97 cm long in males and 4.84 cm long in females .

the white drummer has yellow-green legs marked with dark brown and black .

the white drummer make a constant rattle-like call , which can carry over long distances , singing during the day and at dusk .

it consists of a series of pulses emitted by the cicada at a rate of 65 per second , with each lasting 2.5-3.5 microseconds followed by an interval of 14 microseconds .

the frequency of the call is 5.5-6.5 khz with a weak harmonic at 12 khz .

like the related double drummer ( thopha saccata ) , its sac-like tymbal covers amplify its call .

the white drummer is found along australia 's eastern coastline from cooktown in northern queensland to narooma in southern new south wales .

it has also been collected from far northern cape york .

the preferred habitat of the white drummer is swampy forest and mangroves , with the cicadas perching on trees such as sheoak ( casuarina equisetifolia ) , swamp oak ( c. glauca ) , coast banksia ( banksia integrifolia ) and coast wattle ( acacia sophorae ) .

adults appear in december and january .

female cicadas lay eggs exclusively on live branches .

the atlas of living australia acknowledges australia ' s traditional owners and pays respect to the past and present elders of the nation ' s aboriginal and torres strait islander communities . we honour and celebrate the spiritual , cultural and customary connections of traditional owners to country and the biodiversity that forms part of that country .
this genus is closely related to thopha and contains two recognised species . both species are found in close proximity to the beaches of eastern australia . they are characterised by having large , pale timbal covers , which are covered by a white , dusty pubescence ( unless specimens are very worn ) .
distributed along the eastern coastal belt from the southern torres strait islands in queensland south to narooma in new south wales . the first adults emerge in november and may persist until april .
populations may be widespread in dune vegetation , such as she - oaks and banksias and in similar trees , as well as pandanus palms on headlands . in some areas , populations can inhabit mangroves , especially towards the western limit of intertidal marshes . on the islands of the capricorn group ( off the coast of rockhampton ) ,
spp . and can be caught without too much difficulty with the aid of a net .
a strong , continuous , motor - like rattle , sung sporadically during the day and most prominently at dusk .
coastally south from cooktown in queensland to urunga in northern new south wales . adults appear in november and populations may persist until may .
inhabits the mangroves growing closest to the beach . females oviposit ( lay eggs ) in the dune vegetation away from the mudflats . calling males tend to be scattered throughout patches of mangroves , especially the grey mangrove (
) . this species is often difficult to capture without a long - handled net .

the mexican gray squirrel ( or red-bellied squirrel ) ( sciurus aureogaster ) is a tree squirrel in the genus sciurus native to guatemala and eastern and southern mexico .

it has been introduced in the florida keys .

the alternate name of this squirrel ( red-bellied squirrel ) should not be confused with the indonesian red-bellied squirrel ( rubrisciurus rubriventer ) or the asian red-bellied tree squirrel ( callosciurus erythraeus ) .

the two subspecies each have many synonyms associated with them : the subspecies s. a. aureogaster was also known as s. a. chrysogaster , s. a. ferruginiventris , s. a. hypopyrrhus , s. a. hypoxanthus , s. a. leucogaster , s. a. maurus , s. a. morio , s. a. mustelinus , s. a. raviventer and s. a. rufiventris .

the subspecies s. a. nigrescens was also known as s. a. affinis , s. a. albipes , s. a. cervicalis , s. a. chiapensis , s. a. cocos , s. a. colimensis , s. a. effugius , s. a. frumentor , s. a. griseoflavus , s. a. hernandezi , s. a. hirtus , s. a. leucops , s. a. littoralis , s. a. nelsoni , s. a. nemoralis , s. a. perigrinator , s. a. poliopus , s. a. quercinus , s. a. rufipes , s. a. senex , s. a. socialis , s. a. tepicanus , s. a. varius and s. a. wagneri .

mexico is the usa’s major rival in soccer / fútbol , which makes life hard for some mexican - americans at world cup time . mexico has hosted the world cup twice , and both times the team made it to the quarterfinals , but el tri has never made it any further than that .
this squirrel occurs in most forested habitats including thorn scrub , deciduous and evergreen forest , dry pine - oak woodland , secondary forest , and plantations . in dry woodlands or forest it is most common , especially in those bordering agricultural areas ( reid 1997 ) . it also occurs in urban areas . this squirrel is diurnal and usually solitary . individuals occupy distinct territories and may occur at densities of 0 . 7 individuals / ha ( coates - estrada and estrada 1986 ) . it is mainly arboreal , but will come to the ground to feed or travel from tree to tree . leaf nests are built on tree branches , 5 to 15 m above ground . in the lowlands , it feeds fruits and seeds of ficus spp . , cecropia spp . , poulsenia armata , brosimum alicastrum , and astrocaryum mexicanum . acorns and pine nuts are the staple foods of highland populations . plantations of corn , mango , cacao , and tamarind are sometimes raided . it is usually silent , but sometimes makes raspy trills and harsh chatters . females give birth to 2 to 4 young during the dry season ; black and gray individuals may be born in the same litter ( reid 1997 ) .
this is a fantastic squirrel , jennifer ! your color is so very bold , while still being true to the animal , and your texture work is impressive ! some of your best , in fact . the feel of the fur and the contrast between body and tail really come through here . and as someone who used to have backyard squirrels sitting on his shoulder as a kid , i know what i’m talking about !
mexican red - bellied squirrels make leaf nests built on tree branches approximately 5 - 15m above ground . these leaf nests consist of a base of interwoven twigs containing an inner cup of tightly packed singular leaves and covered by a dome of interlaced leaves and small twigs . it is thought the twigs and leaves are taken from the immediate area surrounding the nest and consist of the inhabited tree species . in mexico ,
has an average of 1 - 2 offspring per litter and food availability appears to be the limiting factor in their reproduction . in a study by brown and mcguire ( 1975 ) , 70 - 90 % of adult males captured in florida exhibited signs of breeding condition year round . in the same region , lactating females varied from 50 % of adult females in february and over 40 % in the may - august period , to a low of 12 . 5 % in november . in general , little is known about reproduction in this squirrel species .
little is known about the home range sizes of mexican red - bellied squirrels in their native range . in their introduced range in florida , home range sizes for females are smaller than those of their male counterparts , with the average home range size for adult males is 2 . 3 hectares and for females it is 0 . 9 hectare . home range size of breeding males are highly variable and may indicate some type of social hierarchy where certain males dominate in mating with females , while some individuals may range farther to breed with receptive females .
red - bellied squirrels are found in a variety of forests ranging from tropical scrub and broadleaf forests of the hot lowlands to the cold and wet temperate cloud forests of oak and conifer in the highlands . they are found at up to 3 , 800 meters in elevation . they are most commonly found in dry woodlands and generally occur in forested habitats including thorn scrub , deciduous and evergreen forest , dry pine - oak woodland , secondary forest , and plantations . mexican red - bellied squirrels also inhabit areas bordering agricultural and urban areas . introduced populations in the florida keys are abundant in dense , subtropical hammock - forest .
mexican red - bellied squirrels are diurnal with most movements starting one - half hour after sunrise until about an hour before noon , and then beginning again in the early evening hours . even after long exposure to humans , s . aureogaster is shy and elusive . in areas where the species was introduced it rarely comes to the ground and spends most of its time on the limbs of tree canopy . in mexico , however , squirrels can be observed using the forest floor year round , especially during the dry season . high winds , days with high ambient temperature , and cloudy and / or rainy weather inhibits normal activity . when an intruder approaches , s . aureogaster shows occasional aggressive behaviors such as emitting barks and moving its tail forward and backward rapidly . chasing behaviors have been observed between individuals of s . aureogaster and may be involved with reproduction . the chasing behavior consists of multiple individuals chasing a single individual and producing numerous squeaking and clicking sounds over a small area of the forest .
adult males weigh an average of 591 . 7 g amd adult females weigh an average of 562 . 5 g . hayssen et al . 1993 report an average body mass of 505 g . head and body length ranges from 232 to 310 mm , with tail length ranging from 215 to 284 mm . dorsal pelage consists of salt - and - pepper coloration combined with a bright rufous belly and flank . the rufous color of the flank is spread dorsally over the area of the forelimbs and shoulder to form an hour - glass shaped marking over the back . these main pelage features are best developed and least variable in populations of the northern ( tamaulipas and eastern san luis potosi ) and southeastern ( northeastern oaxaca , eastern veracruz , tabasco , and northeastern chiapas ) segments of the range . red - bellied squirrels are one of the most variable western hemisphere tree squirrels in terms and color and pattern . they can have grayish upper parts that may be broken or un - patterned by nape or rump patches , a shoulder and costal patch , or combinations of those patterns . the underparts may vary from white to orange to deep chestnut . in a study area in michoacan , squirrels were grey with white underparts . in certain segments of the range , populations exhibit melanism . in northern populations , a melanistic phase is common ; about 40 % of specimens sampled from tamaulipas and eastern san luis potosi have high degrees of black coloration . furthermore , introduced populations in the florida keys have either totally black or gray dorsal pelage with a red belly color phase in a 50 % ratio . most melanistic squirrels have a reddish tinge to the underfur on the back and rump . reid ( 1997 ) defines four distinct color forms ( although there is variation in each form ) .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
justification : this species is listed as least concern in view of its wide distribution , presumed large population , tolerance of a broad range of habitats , and because it does not appear to be under threat and is unlikely to be declining at nearly the rate required to qualify for listing in a threatened category .
this species occurs from southwest and central guatemala to guanajuato , nayarit and nuevo leon , mexico ( thorington and hoffmann 2005 ) . it has been introduced to elliot key , florida ( reid 1997 ) . it occurs from lowlands to 3 , 800 m ( reid 1997 ) .
no major threats known . although not considered a major threat , in some areas this species is hunted for food or to prevent damage to corn and other crops ( reid 1997 ) .
there are no known conservation measures specific to this species . however , there are several protected areas within its range .
to make use of this information , please check the < terms of use > .
the range of red - bellied squirrels extends northward from southwest and central guatemala to guanajuato , nayarit , and nuevo leon , mexico . two pairs were introduced to elliott key island in the florida keys in 1938 by a resident of the island and now a population is established there . they have also been documented on adams key , sands key , and old rhodes key , indicating that they may be expanding their introduced range . in one study conducted , a density of 2 . 47 squirrels were calculated per hectare in elliot key . across the range , two subspecies have been identified :
inhabiting the rest of the geographic range . according to morphological characteristics of the baculum , red - bellied squirrels are closely related to other neotropical squirrels :
( brown and mcguire , 1969 ; brown , 1969 ; koprowski , et al . , 2005 ; layne , 1997 ; mcguire , 1975 ; palmer , et al . , 2014 ; reid , 1997 ; tilmant , 1980 ; villalobos and cervantes - reza , 2007 ; wilson and reeder , 2005 )
( hayssen , 2008 ; hayssen , et al . , 1996 ; mcguire , 1975 ; musser , 1968 ; ramos - lara and cervantes , 2011 ; reid , 1997 )
exhibits year round breeding activity . mating system is unknown , but is most likely polygynandrous as for most members of the family
females give birth to 2 - 4 offspring during the dry season across their normal distribution . for florida populations ,
breeding interval sciurus aureogaster exhibit year round breeding activity . gestation period is unknown .
. the squirrels build nests in forks of trees or in branches of oak and pine . individuals constructing nests bite off leafy branches 20 - 30cm long and interweave them into a spherical shape . during the wet season
is most commonly used during the dry season . this preference , however , may be due to seasonal tree mast production . when available , artificial nest boxes are utilized . however , unlike their natural form , the artificial nest boxes are exposed and uncovered . in a study conducted on introduced populations in the florida keys , brown and mcguire ( 1975 ) discovered
uses nest boxes in tropical habitat characterized by a few natural tree hollows . eight different tree species were used , although the west indian mahogany (
( brown and mcguire , 1975 ; mcguire , 1975 ; musser , 1968 ; pack , et al . , 1967 ; ramos - lara and cervantes , 2007 ; ramos - lara and cervantes , 2011 ; reid , 1997 )
four different vocalizations have been outlined by brown and mcguire ( 1975 ) using sharp ' s ( 1959 ) terminology : 1 . the call of apprehension ; a low - pitched barking call when squirrels are at a safe distance but within sight of an intruder . 2 . the call of danger ; high - pitched barking call and a faster note . 3 . the mating call ; numerous rapid squeaking and clucking sounds . 4 . the squeal of death ; sharp , piercing high - pitched squeals . during apprehensive and danger calls , the tail is held forward over the back in an “s” position and rapidly moved forward and backward .
red - bellied squirrels are primarily frugivorous . in the lowlands of its native range , seeds and fruits of
are commonly eaten . in the highlands , acorns and pine nuts are common food staples . in mexico , red - bellied squirrels are observed feeding on seeds of pines (
) . however , field observations indicate that use of food items may be based on seasonality . red - bellied squirrels use the fruit or seeds of many different species of tropical trees and shrubs including wild mastic (
) , and sea grape . when seeds are unavailable , squirrels clip branches and consume the phloem of wild mastic .
) , which provide rich and constant food supply throughout the year along marine shorelines .
( brown and mcguire , 1969 ; hall and kelson , 1959 ; mcguire , 1975 ; palmer , et al . , 2007 ; ramos - lara and cervantes , 2011 ; reid , 1997 )
in native populations , red - bellied squirrels are hunted as food for human consumption and makes up 4 . 9 % of the bobcat (
) diet . in introduced populations , there is little predation pressure . rather , competition for food and denning sites with native fox squirrels , black rats , raccoons , frugivorous birds , owls , and other species appears to be the limiting factor on population density .
( aranda , et al . , 2002 ; mcguire , 1975 ; reid , 1997 )
) due to an overlap in territory and shared resources . where introduced , red - bellied squirrels can affect native fauna , such as the threatened white - crowned pigeons (
) , a state species of special concern . additionally , the dispersal and establishment of white oak trees can be decreased due to predation on acorns by red - bellied squirrels . possible commensal relationships occur between red - bellied squirrels and invertebrate taxa such as ants , paper wasps , and scorpions as they were found inside man - made nest boxes with these squirrels . screech owls (
) may use nest boxes for temporary shelter and rearing young . red - bellied squirrels are host to a recently described species of nematode ,

mexico , whose national team is nicknamed el tri for the country’s tricolor flag , is in the world cup’s group a , a tough bunch of contenders , as we discussed yesterday . in friday’s opening game of the tournament , mexico just managed to tie south africa 1–1 . of course a win would have made either team happy , but the level of competition in their group is such that neither is out of the running yet . ( if you missed the game , here’s the guardian’ s live blog of it . ) next , south africa takes on uruguay on wednesday and mexico faces france on thursday .
